Farmer Mr. Jones treats the animals on his farm anything but well. He locks them up, bullies them, and exploits them. When he forgets to feed his animals for several days while very drunk, the animals react to their hunger and collectively drive Jones off the farm.

Animal Farm

Schauspielhaus Bad Godesberg

Jupiter, the supreme god and supreme "womanizer," has declared the beautiful Alcmene the target of his seductive powers and, for this purpose, assumes the form of her husband Amphitryon. At the same time, the messenger of the gods, Mercury, annoys Amphitryon's servant, Sosias, by transforming into him and challenging his existence. But others have the same idea. So, who is Sosias, the real, the true Sosias? Apparently, no one can claim that with any justification. His supposed wife, Cléanthis, like Alcmene, also loses herself in the interplay of different statements.

Amphitryon

I can't take it anymore. Really, I've had enough, I'm about to burst. I've had enough. If I met a worthless fat man who wasn't completely on top of his game, I'd throw him in the dung and put my foot on his copper face. I'd beat the hell out of him, turn him to kindling, stomp him to a pulp, tear his arms off, play drums with them, and teach him the proper way to play the flute—if I wanted to, I could... But of course I won't. My sense of justice is like a gold scale. And even though my index finger itches to blame a specific person for the fragile state of the world and to take revenge on them through physical revenge, I obviously won't. I appreciate the achievements of civilization. But I've experienced injustice, and I have to take a stand. So I'll stick myself to the street. No, just kidding, I'll just sign a petition. No, just kidding, I'll stand by a ferry with a pitchfork and see if the politician dares to get off. No, just kidding, I'll write a long, angry piece for the arts section. No, just kidding, I'll become an Instagram activist. No, just kidding, I'll throw Molotov cocktails and kidnap the employers' president. No, just kidding, I'll put on a play on the topic and then I can finally sleep peacefully again, because I've publicly acted injustice. Or not?

Kohlhaas (can't get no satisfaction)

Telling each other stories can be encouraging. It can distract from everyday life, from all the things that sometimes make life so difficult. Jonathan Löwe knows this too. That's why he tells his seriously ill little brother Karl, nicknamed "Krümel," stories about the land of Nangijala. Because that's where you go when you die. Nangijala is a fairytale land, Jonathan promises. A land full of legends and stories and, above all, a place where you experience nothing but adventures all day long. But completely unexpectedly, Jonathan dies before his brother when he saves Krümel from a burning house.
